1% built: Opportunities and challenges in building Africa's payment infrastructures

Payments in Africa are "1% built," presenting a massive opportunity to unlock growth for businesses and improve lives - not just on the continent itself but also around the globe where migrants proliferate and prosper.

Join Benjamin Fernandes, CEO of Nala, a cross-border payments and remittances fintech focusing on building Africa's modern payment infrastructure, to discuss the challenges and opportunities in African payments. With unconscionably high costs and complexities, payments within and to/from Africa illustrate the pressing need for infrastructure and regulatory improvements - and Benjamin and Nala are at the helm.

Co-hosted with Money2020's Micky Tesfaye.
